We used reiserfs for a while on SuSE systems thinking that it would be OK because it was the default. Unfortunately I have had several occassions where we had massive data loss with reiserfs so haven't used for several years. We moved to ext3 on the ``/'' file system with xfs on other file systems on SuSE with no problems. The ext3 systems seem to be bullet proof, and xfs doesn't require fsck in most cases. We have used ext3 on all the CentOS systems as it doesn't support xfs in the default configuration.
